Score of Years on Curb, Order Market Stand Out

rN addition to being the dean of city market standholders. Mrs. Mathew Specker is a philosopher. While her neighbors on the market are bemoaning the order of the safety board abolishing sidewalk stands after July 5, Mother, as she is known in respect for her nearly two score years of market attendance, refused to be perturbed. "When they say move. I move,” was all Mother woula say in the broken accent of her native Germany. Seventy-two years old, active and keen-eyed, she already has made arrangements for a stand inside the market house in compliance with the new rule. nun ON Monday, Wednesday and Friday, "ofr days at the market, Mrs. Specker helps her 76-year-old husband and her daughter, Adele. till the elevenacre farm at Box 656, R.

There the three do all the work of plowing, planting, weeding and harvesting of the cabbage, beets, green beans, carrots and kale that Mother brings to market three days a week. , Adele, the lone homebody of a family of seven daughters and four sons, is the youngest and the mother's pride.

DERBY VICTORY SHOWN IN REEL Thrilling Horse Race Main Feature of Film. Gusto, a rank outsider, romping home to a sterling victory in the $50,000 American Derby at Homewood, 111., is one of the outstanding units of the current issue of The Indianapolis Times-Universal newsreel now being exhibited at leading city theaters. The horse all but runs several of the nation's best 3-year-olds into the ground in a homestretch battle. Graham McNamee, radio announcer of the National Broadcasting Company staff, comments on this and other items in the reel. The new 25-cent piece that will make its appearance next month is shown in the reel in a unit from the United States mint at Philadelphia. The pictures show the actual making of the money and the stamping on the coin the head of George Washington. The coins are to commemorate the bicentennial of Washington's birth. Eamonn De Valera visiting London for the conference with dominion secretary on the "oath question,” which ended in a deadlock, is shown in another unit of the reel. Victory for the Hoover-Curtis ticket in the November election is predicted by Everett Sanders, new Republican national committee chairman, in another item. A test of anew type giant bomber adapted by the United States army at Dayton, 0., and Mr. and Mrs. Hoover entertaining more than 900 disabled war veterans on the White House lawn are other items of interest in the reel.

man. Big and strong, she does everything,” Mother praised. nun PLACES and dates mean little to Mrs. Specker. Seventytwo- years—hard, toilsome years—are a long time. She remembers she was married in Germany and came to America with her husband. How long ago, she doesn't remember. Neither docs she recall her first market day, except that she has been there "long time before any of these people"—indicating with a wide wave of her hand, the other Market street stands. She always has had an outside stapd, former locations were on the Alabama courthouse side, the Delaware courthouse stands and at the corner of Alabama and Market on the market house side. She has been at her present stand, in the middle of the block at the curb side of Market street for more than ten years. Depressions do not worry Mother. She has been through them before—so why worry?

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

DRY LEAGUE IS MARKING TIME IN REPEALJATTLE Action by Democrats at Chicago Awaited Before Campaign Is Charted. With both Democratic and Republican state conventions adopting repeal planks, the Indiana AntiSaloon League today awaited action at Democratic national convention in Chicago s>efore deciding on its future course of action. L. E. York, league superintendent, today said that although the Democrats are expected to adopt a prohibition repeal plank at least as strong as that adopted by the Republican national convention, no statement of policy could be issued now. The future course of action will be decided by a board of strategy representing thirty-five dry organizations, includes churches, he said.

In commenting on the state plat- j forms. York said he did not believe any state could afford outright re- | peal of the state prohibition law without similar repeal of the national law, as this would be nullification by indirection. York said he and others interest- i ed in the dry movement felt the wets had taken an unfair advantage in forcing the two major political parties to insert wet planks in their! platforms, inasmuch as the drys never had sought to force inclusion of dry planks in former years. ‘The Indiana Democratic plank calls for repeal of the Wright law and substitution of a regulatory act.” he said. "The Republican plank calls so enactment of a state law similar to! the national law. I think that is better, although don’t get the impression from that that I am up- ; holding either.” York pointed out that the term “resubmission” of the eighteenth amendment is a misnomer, inasmuch as the only possible procedure is for congress to propose to the state legislatures anew twentieth amendment, modifying or repealing the eighteenth amendment. “Our stand on such questions has been that if anew amendment is submitted and adopted, we will abide by it,” he said, “but, of course, we will oppose any change”
